Good news! Joanna Ruocco’s “iDeath” was selected for inclusion in Best Microfiction 2026! Delighted to have published this marvelous fiction in Big Other last year. And we are so happy—to say the least—to see it receive this honor.
Congratulations, Joanna! And big thanks to editors Gary Fincke, Meg Pokrass, and Diane Seuss for selecting this superb fiction! Looking forward to seeing it published in the anthology.
